“Maybe it's the things I say Maybe I should think before I speak But I thought I knew enough To know myself and do what's right for me And these wall I'm building now You used to bring 'em down And the tears I'm crying out You used to wipe away I thought you said it was easy Listening to your heart I thought you said I'd be okay So why am I breaking apart Why is this all so confusing Complicated and consuming Why does all this make me angry I wanna go back to being happy These tears I'm crying now you used to wipe away .. I just don't wanna be torn”
